A Visit to San Jose by the Christ Church Team


 Monday, October 25th, the members of the construction team
from Christ Church, Plano, TX, visited the younger children's
home, Casa Hogar San Jose.  It was a blessing for everyone!

 Such a beautiful drive out there....


and the kids are ready and waiting to 
give a warm welcome to the guys!


Tio Alejandro serves as a translator between the English and Spanish speakers


Each of the children tell the team information about themselves
 Tamara shares...
and our newest resident and Quechua speaker,
 Martita, is beginning to learn some Spanish

 Wilbur

Estrella

 The children have prepared two songs for the team - "Que Maravilla" 
 (how wonderful to be a family in Christ) and "El Espiritu de Dios"


The team has brought many gifts for the kids to their delight!

 Tamara and Tio Juan
 Isela is fascinated by this new toy


And adults and children alike had fun just playing!

 Two up and coming soccer stars, Juan Diego and Wilbur


The new basketball hoop was a big hit!

 The children warmed up quickly to the team...
 Jimena and Pamela with Tios Andres (Craig) and Juan
 Tio Antonio with Martita
And Wilbur with Tio Brent

 Sharing his basketball skills endears Tio Andres
 to Rosa, Pamela, and Estrella

The whole group poses for a photo

 Despedidas (good-byes) are always hard!
